It’s the Alpacalypse! LlamaGate! Day of Too Many Llamas! We cover the outrageous llamapallooza that gripped the hearts and minds of a nation, the best and worst moments from the Academy Awards 2015, and the federal decision on Net Neutrality. The gang talks about FOX’s Gotham, Anita Sarkeesian’s #GamerGate speech, and bring back the Internet’s favorite game: Jose Can-Say-So!

We go into the highlights of the New York Toy Fair with Barbie’s high tech upgrade and Lammily’s low tech depictions of horror and bodily abuse. Dave explores the wide world of technology, Dan explains #Supernatural tweets from girls on twitter, and we wrap it all up by selecting our picks for this year’s Academy Awards! Come see us LIVE at the Talking Nerdy Down Home Corner Bar Academy Awards Party Sunday February 22nd at Murphy’s Tavern in Roxborough, Philadelphia at 7PM! SPECIAL THANKS TO MARY BELL and her #Supernatural crew!

Today’s podcast topics include Disney/Marvel’s acquisition of the Spider-Man franchise, how NBC’s The Slap could be a better series, the new mascot for the Philadelphia 76ers and his past as a junkie Furry, and Jon Stewart’s departure from The Daily Show. We play Dan Explains #Supernatural Tweets from Girls on Twitter, the IMDB Movie Game, announce our #HASHTAGorDIE winners, and Dave provides the latest news from the wide world of technology.

The crew takes refuge from the Snowpocalypse to discuss Racist Robots, the blogging villainy of Dr. Doom of the ‘Fantastic 4′ reboot, and an all-female ‘Ghostbusters’ cast. We read our favorites from this week’s #HASHTAGorDIE game, Dan Explains #Supernatural Tweets from Girls on Twitter, we debate American Sniper and other Oscar movies we’ve actually seen, and finish it all off with a Super Bowl Edition of the Rotten Tomatoes Game!

In this episode, we channel the evasive Jesse “The Mind” Ventura and revisit Jose Can-Say-So with CANSECODAMUS 2015! Dan signs up for InvisibleGirlfriend.com, Eliza Skinner destroys Gary Owen, and Bradley Cooper forgets he’s acting opposite a fake baby. We say a final farewell to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and pick our favorite #HASHTAGorDIE titles for #SmellySchmovies. All this and more on this week’s Talking Nerdy!

We have a discussion about the aftermath of the Charlie Hebdo attack, and the rise of cartoonist support, ongoing protests like #BlackLivesMatter and #BlackBrunch, Dick Poop and the rest of the Oscar nominations, as well as breaking news from Sony, Marvel, and DC. We round it all out with our picks for funniest #FishSchmovies tweets in our #HashtagOrDie challenge with Schmovie, and the introduction of the new game: Celebrity or Maniac!

In a dark week for free speech, the best thing to do is speak out. We talk about the tragedy at France’s Charlie Hebdo magazine, who PeTA is mad at now, why we should know who Paul McCartney is, and discuss whether or not Ant-Man will be a success for Marvel. We announce the winners of our #HashtagOrDie game with @Schmovie: #SadSchmovies–and round out our FINAL TEN for the Talking Nerdy Celebrity Death Pool!

We review the best in media and entertainment of 2014, discuss the aftermath of a New Year’s Eve Party gone awry, and kick off the first draft for the Talking Nerdy Celebrity Death Pool. Second round of the draft coming next week! Get down and get ready for this week’s episode of #TalkingNerdy
